Tennessee has been to Omaha twice this decade, and even in those years we averaged around 2000 fans per game. I've never, even when we're good thought of baseball as a "Big 3" sport but since I've come here I've realized some schools do. What schools care about it the most in order? Would this be about right?
1. LSU
2. Arkansas
3. South Carolina
4. Ole Miss
5. Vanderbilt
6. Mississippi State
7. Auburn
8. Alabama
9. Florida
10. Georgia
11. Kentucky
12. Tennessee
1. LSU
2. Arkansas
3. South Carolina
4. Ole Miss
5. Vanderbilt
6. Mississippi State
7. Auburn
8. Alabama
9. Florida
10. Georgia
11. Kentucky
12. Tennessee

I think Georgia cares about baseball. I mean they are normally good at it so we should care.

You could move Auburn up a notch or two for this season...

We could win back to back to back world series and Tennessee wouldn't care about baseball half as much as some fans care about womens basketball

That's embarrassing though IMO. If I ranked the sports I care about I would say:
Football
Basketball
Football Recruiting
Basketball Recruiting
Baseball and all the other non revenue men's sports

I think Arkansas and South Carolina could be changed, but also kept the same. Tie I guess. Hell you could put South Carolina at first since LSU has football.
But they have championships so I won't doubt them being 1st.

I agree. They are a top 3 SEC program all-time, I would say.

I agree that's why I said some fans. I went 4 years without attending or watching a Lady Vols game. that time included I think 2 NCs too.

Situational support based on annual performance. The other 6 I would say have a pretty respectable following regardless.
By the way, hear about that recruit we picked up today? Had some offers from some pretty big schools. Today could be a great day to be a Gamecock.

Well, maybe not top 3 for UGA, but def higher than most, at least over the last 20 years. LSU, Bama, and State may have more success over time, but UGA has a title, so...

I care about football and basketball more. My interest is growing in baseball but it'll always be third.

Wrong. We went to the CWS twice this decade and didn't give a damn about it then either.
